Costigan's Pub
Cork
28/07/2025: Beautiful pub, every corner is a gem.
26/07/2025: We stayed two nights and went back because we enjoyed it so much.
A good Guinness and a very varied spirits and whisky menu.
Live music from 9 to 11 p.m.
The venue has a very thoughtful decor; it's huge and somewhat labyrinthine.

My Goodness
Cork
13/06/2025: Lovely place, Friendly staff, great food and reasonable prices.
It’s brilliant for gluten free and vegan.
definitely worth a visit if in cork city.
12/06/2025: This cute booth at the market was a delicious pay off after wandering through the Cork food marketplace. I’m sucker for a kombucha on tap. Their seasonal flavor was “beetsy boy” & complimented the food nicely. The staff was exceptional offering samples and they were very knowledgeable/passionate about the vegan food scene. The quality and quantity of the food was a bargain. We got a unique assortment of dishes: home fried potatoes with kimcheeze (kimchi cheese) salad items and barbecue sauce along with Kimchi Mac N Cheeze complete with an oyster mushroom drumstick. I also got 2 vegan raw tarts. I wish I could eat this food every day; it was a treat!

John Henchy & Sons
Cork
02/08/2025: We visited Cork last weekend from Manchester and were delighted to stumble on this pub on our first night. We spent a few nights here, sat outside watching the world go by and in one of the many snug corners inside listening to some good music. It had a great vibe and atmosphere and seemed to cater for all ages, regulars and visitors. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and helped point us in the right direction re our visit. The pub is really old and has some nice features, art and stained glass. We looked it up and saw a review where it was listed in the Telegraphs Top 100 pubs. We will definitely call in again next time we visit Cork. 💚
30/07/2025: Magnificent Guinness. Best in Cork. Fabulous service and lively atmosphere too.

The atmosphere was stunningly beautiful, making it a perfect spot for a night out. But what really made the experience stand out was the super friendly staff - they went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much

The Shelbourne
Cork
25/07/2025: Yooo one of my favourite chill bars in Cork. We had the three amigos, three stouts and then just guess which one is which. Solution is provided. Fun experience, vibes are chill, interior cool, and the staff fun. Had a good time!
16/07/2025: Best whiskey bar I've been to, incredible selection of Irish whiskey, and the experience of the flights was top tier. Cian was incredibly knowledgeable about each offering, and guided us through the history and provenance of the whiskeys and poitín he served, and his recommendations were great. If you can, ask if Sum Gai is working behind the bar, they're the bestbartender I've met.

Mutton Lane Inn
Cork
01/08/2025: Went here after a recommendation from a friend. Very chilled out and a great atmosphere. Reminds me of my favourite pub from years ago. The first night we were there, the music consisted of Joy Division, Nirvana and Pink Floyd. In my book it doesn't get better than that. Nice mix of people there too. I'd definitely go back, and you should too. Oh, and by the way, the staff are super friendly. Tell them I send ya! ;-)
01/08/2025: Traditional Irish pub down a side alley off the main street

Nash 19
Cork
29/07/2025: I ordered Lao Gan Ma fried rice, double egg and pork ribs, Chumae Ichiban, red oil wonton, roast meat platter (barbecued pork, fried chicken, roast duck), beef rice noodles, and preserved egg and lean meat congee. They were all delicious. I highly recommend the red oil wonton (the wontons were made with solid ingredients and the red oil was fragrant), the Chumae Ichiban (the pork ribs were thick and fragrant), and the roast meat platter (the skin was fragrant and the meat was tender).
07/07/2025: My wife and I were excited to go but were very upset by the animal cruelty. :(
There was a poor lobster tied up and alive on top of his dead friends on display, unable to move and out of water.
I dreamt about rescuing him.

Eat at UCC
Cork
14/08/2025: I recommend a visit to the college both for the lovely walk amid the university's greenery and for the very evocative internal quadrangle. The oldest part dates back to the mid-19th century.
11/08/2025: A pleasant space to take a walk while seeing the old buildings of the university campus.
